They are seeking a highly experienced Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) / Cloud DevOps Engineer to own and drive infrastructure, cloud architecture, CI/CD, containerization, observability, and production reliability. This is not a ticket-based support role. The ideal candidate is a hands-on infrastructure builder and technical leader who understands systems at a deep level and has experience owning production environments from code to cloud. The successful candidate will have strong architectural judgment and the ability to establish and enforce engineering standards across the organization., * 5+ years of experience in Infrastructure, DevOps, Cloud Engineering, or Site Reliability Engineering. * Strong hands-on experience with AWS. * Strong experience with Terraform / Infrastructure as Code. * Strong Python scripting and automation experience. * Advanced Linux knowledge. * Production experience supporting and owning distributed systems. * Demonstrated experience owning production environments end to end. * Strong understanding of cloud architecture, reliability, scalability, security, and cost optimization. * Experience building reusable CI/CD systems and pipelines. * Strong understanding of containerization and Docker. * Experience implementing observability across production systems. * Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills. * Ability to make and defend technical architecture decisions. Preferred / Strong-Signal Qualifications * Production experience with OPA (Open Policy Agent) and policy-as-code. * Experience enforcing security and engineering standards directly within CI/CD pipelines. * Strong understanding of OpenTelemetry and observability specifications. * Experience with distributed systems and large-scale production environments. * Experience implementing organization-wide observability practices. * Experience with container orchestration and cloud-native infrastructure. * Experience with AI/ML workload infrastructure is a plus. ## Description * Own and evolve highly available, scalable, and secure cloud infrastructure. * Design and maintain AWS cloud architecture based on performance, security, reliability, cost, and ROI considerations. * Build reusable and scalable CI/CD pipelines supporting end-to-end code-to-cloud delivery. * Implement and enforce engineering standards through: + Linters + Security scanning + Policy-as-code + Automated quality gates * Design, deploy, and manage containerized workloads using Docker and related technologies. * Demonstrate a strong understanding of Docker isolation, including Linux namespaces and cgroups. * Establish and enforce organization-wide observability standards. * Implement and maintain metrics, logs, traces, and alerting for distributed production systems. * Work with OpenTelemetry and modern observability practices. * Manage infrastructure using Terraform and Infrastructure as Code principles. * Develop automation and infrastructure tooling using Python. * Troubleshoot complex production issues across Linux, cloud infrastructure, networking, and distributed systems. * Establish reliability, scalability, security, and operational best practices across engineering teams. * Take ownership of production environments and drive improvements rather than simply supporting existing systems. * Evaluate new technologies and architectural approaches based on business value and technical requirements. * Partner closely with software engineering, security, and platform teams. * Contribute to the infrastructure roadmap for future AI workload infrastructure.
